Driver Assessment Officer Training Program

Driver Assessment Officer Training Program

This 8 hour course focuses on the following concepts and skills of professional operator assessment:

Review of current traffic law

Driving standards

Rules of the road

Marking criteria - general and specific

Evaluation materials – road test score sheet

Assessing pre-trip inspections

Creating an effective road test route

Dealing with subjectivity

General professionalism

In this all-day, in-class program the attendees will learn to assess the significant aspects of driver operations. Course materials are provided to assist in this process.

The trainees will learn how to assess using a demerit-point system. This system will be outlined in terms of assessing both experienced and new drivers. In such a process, the assessment officer scores the driver by subtracting points for errors, and at the end of the session has a numeric score to interpret.

The trainees will learn the differences between testing a new driver and testing an experienced driver and the common mistakes that they will see.

The final part will be a practical exercise, done to simulate a pass or fail of a commercial driver, based on the material learned in the course. This is an in-class program only and does not include an on-road component.

A certificate of attendance will be issued. A replacement fee of $10 will be charged for reissue of certificates.
